pigeon song

America

Well, I had me a pigeon
By the name of fred
But I done shot him
In the head

Had me a railroad
Down on the ridge
But I done blowed up
The bridge

Had me a dog
He was my best friend
But to him
I done put an end

Had me a farm
Sittin? pretty on the hill
But if you look
You?ll see it ain?t there still

I don?t know why I done it
Honest, it ain?t like me
But I ain?t sad now I done it
?cause a baby boy has got to be free
